In the name of ‘it’s healthy,’ but is it really? 👩🏻⚕
As we celebrate the vibrant festivals of Lohri and Makar Sankranti, one treat stands out on every plate—Gur Ki Rewari! This crunchy, sweet delight, made from jaggery (gur) and sesame seeds, is a festival must-have. But is it more than just a treat, did our ancestors know what we didn’t?
Let’s Talk 🎙
Why Gur Ki Rewari Deserves a Place in Your Festivities:
➊ Natural Detox: Jaggery helps cleanse the liver, flushing out winter toxins.
➋ Fights Anemia: Rich in iron and folate, it improves hemoglobin levels and oxygen circulation.
➌ Bone Health: Sesame seeds provide calcium, magnesium, and zinc for strong bones.
➍ Digestive Aid: Jaggery stimulates enzymes, while sesame seeds add fiber for gut health.
➎ Regulates Sugar Spikes: Healthy fats and fiber slow sugar absorption, balancing blood sugar levels.
➏ Boosts Immunity: Antioxidants in both ingredients protect against winter infections.
How to Indulge Guilt-Free:
✔ Stick to 2–3 pieces daily.
✔ Pair with nuts for balanced nutrition.
✔ Opt for homemade or high-quality rewari to avoid additives.
This Lohri and Makar Sankranti, celebrate the sweetness of tradition with the warmth of Gur Ki Rewari. A perfect combination of health and taste, it’s a mindful indulgence that nourishes your body while satisfying your soul.
Happy Festivals! 🌾🔥
